NYC Department of Finance filings

Rent collected per square foot: retail buildings in Manhattan

In 2024, 1,328 Manhattan retail properties filed income statements with the city. Their median gross income was $64.71 per square foot, and the middle half collected between $38.35 and $104.91. The typical property's income was up 2.1% on 2023. The city publishes these figures by borough, not by neighborhood, so they cover Manhattan as a whole.

Owners of income-producing properties file a Real Property Income and Expense statement each year; gross income is everything a property collected in 2024 per square foot, as filed, with outlier and partial-year filers left out.

Liquor licenses in Tribeca

How many places in Tribeca can serve drinks, how many are waiting on a license, and whether a new full liquor license here would face the 500-foot rule: the first thing to check before leasing a space for a bar or a restaurant with a full bar.

The 500-foot rule in Tribeca

A new full liquor license for drinking on site cannot be issued within 500 feet of three or more places that already hold one, unless the State Liquor Authority finds at a hearing that it is in the public interest (ABC Law, section 64). Here 106 of 109 full-liquor places have three or more others within 500 feet, so almost any new full liquor license here would need that hearing. Beer and wine licenses are not subject to the rule.

Counted by license; business names are not shown. Neighborhood figures count places near the neighborhood's commercial core, the same area as the restaurant figures above. Only licenses to drink on site count: full liquor for restaurants, bars, hotels, clubs and similar places, and beer and wine. Stores, boats and second bars of a licensed place are left out. The 500-foot figures count each place once (one holding two licenses is one place) and only places with a map point; distances run between those points, while the law measures from the nearest entrances, so treat them as an estimate.

Questions about restaurant space in Tribeca

Is there restaurant space for lease in Tribeca right now?

No restaurant space for lease in Tribeca is listed on Leasemark right now. Post what you need and Leasemark matches you the day a space that fits is listed; your contact details stay private until you accept an intro. Owners and brokers can list a space here for free.

How much does restaurant space cost in Tribeca?

Leasemark has no asking rents posted here yet, so here are the city's own numbers. Retail buildings in Manhattan collected a median $64.71 per square foot in 2024, and the middle half between $38.35 and $104.91, according to the income and expense statements owners file with the NYC Department of Finance (FY 2027 distributions, 1,328 filings). The city publishes these figures by borough, so this is Manhattan as a whole, not Tribeca alone. That is what buildings actually collected, with vacant space, concessions and leases signed years ago in the mix, so it is a baseline rather than a quote: a specific space's price depends on the building's class, floor, condition and the length of the lease.

Compare every borough

How do I find restaurant space in Tribeca that is not publicly listed?

Post a requirement on Leasemark. Owners and listing brokers see what you need (without your contact details) and can respond with spaces, including ones that are not on the market yet. You choose who gets an intro.

How much retail space is there in Tribeca?

New York City's PLUTO tax lot data (26v2) records about 3.1 million square feet of retail floor area across 514 properties in the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers. The largest by that measure is 385 Broadway, at about 21,000 square feet. That is the existing building stock, not space currently for lease.

How many restaurants are there in Tribeca?

The NYC Health Department had 211 restaurants and other food service places with an inspection on file in the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers as of October 2026, and 32 more had applied for a permit and were waiting for their first inspection. The most common kinds are American (49), coffee and tea (26) and Italian (15). The streets with the most are Greenwich Street (32), West Broadway (27) and Church Street (21).

How many new restaurants opened in Tribeca in the last year?

28 food service places in the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers had their first pre-permit health inspection in the 12 months to October 23, 2026, 13% of the 211 open there. Counts are food service permits in an active status: restaurants, cafes, bakeries, bars that serve food and similar places. A new permit is either a new restaurant or a new operator taking over an existing one. Places that opened and closed again within the year are not counted.

How many bars and restaurants have a liquor license in Tribeca?

The New York State Liquor Authority listed 109 active full liquor licenses and 23 beer and wine licenses for drinking on site in the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers as of October 23, 2026. 12 more applications for on-site licenses were waiting for a decision, 11 of them for full liquor.

Does the 500-foot rule apply to a new liquor license in Tribeca?

New York's 500-foot rule (Alcoholic Beverage Control Law, section 64) bars a new full liquor license for on-site drinking within 500 feet of three or more places that already hold one, unless the State Liquor Authority finds at a hearing that it is in the public interest. In the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers, 106 of the 109 places with a full liquor license (97%) have three or more others within 500 feet, so almost any new full liquor license here would need that hearing. A beer and wine license is not subject to the rule and does not count toward it. Distances here are between map points, so check the exact address before you sign a lease.

How many storefronts are vacant in Tribeca?

Owners registered 574 ground- and second-floor storefronts in the part of Tribeca Leasemark covers for the end of 2025, and 77 of them (13.4%) stood vacant on December 31, 2025, against 9.2% citywide and 13.9% here a year earlier. The most storefronts are on Broadway (60) and Chambers Street (51). A vacant storefront is not always on the market: some are being renovated, held empty or already leased to a tenant who has not moved in.

Which large buildings in Tribeca have a vacant storefront?

Owners of 5 of the 15 large buildings Leasemark tracks in Tribeca with registered storefronts reported at least one vacant on December 31, 2025, 3 of them at 3 or more year ends in a row. The most vacant: 11 Park Place (3 of 8 storefronts), Long Distance Building, 16 Walker Street (2 of 4 storefronts) and Western Union Building, 56 Hudson Street (1 of 1 storefronts). Each building's page shows its filings by year. A vacant storefront is not always on the market: some are being renovated, held empty or already leased to a tenant who has not moved in.

What subway lines serve Tribeca?

Twelve subway stations sit within about 0.5 mi of Tribeca's commercial core, served by the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, A, C, E, J, N, Q, R, W and Z trains. The closest is Chambers St (1 2 3), roughly 1 minute on foot; then Canal St (1), Chambers St (A C 2 3 E R W), Franklin St (1), Canal St (A C E), City Hall (R W), Brooklyn Bridge-City Hall (4 5 6 J Z) and 5 more. Walking times are straight-line estimates from MTA station data.

Do tenants in Tribeca pay the NYC Commercial Rent Tax?

Yes, for larger leases. Tribeca is in Manhattan below 96th Street, where the city's Commercial Rent Tax applies. A tenant owes it only when base rent for the space is $250,000 a year or more. The tax is 6% of base rent after a 35% reduction, so 3.9% of rent, with a sliding credit between $250,000 and $300,000, and the Small Business Tax Credit wipes it out for businesses with total income of $5 million or less and base rent under $500,000.

Is it free to post on Leasemark?

Yes. Posting a space or a requirement is free. Contact details are only shared when both sides accept an intro.
